Pandemic Quirk #5: Early Dementia

I don’t know about you, but my mind is getting slow! I search for words that would normally be on the tip of my tongue. I reach for names that I’ve always known. I sound like a grandmother and I’m only in my mid-40s.

Sure, we have our families to converse with. But lacking all the different types of humans and conversations and styles on a daily basis, I think my mind is getting lazy without my permission.

Time to start doing memory games, learning a language on Duolingo, getting a second degree, or practicing for a pilot’s license! Thank goodness I’m learning a musical instrument right now or I might be completely doomed to pandemic brain fog.
